    I'm not doing the propagation. Troy Meyers will receive the seed.

    He propagate them for you, and give you back plant ? it's a great job . It will be interesting to see the small "verruqueuse" leaves like that in a tiny flask .

    "You can never have too many plant photos, I always say."

    Ok, who are you and what have you done with Dale?

    This is a beautiful plant! I like the little spider hitch hiker, too; at least I think it's a spider.

    Does anyone know if the propagation of this went well?

    I checked on Meyers Conservatory site and found "There were problems with this item and we weren't able to make any viable flasks." I don't know if this means the seeds were not viable or if there was flask contamination, or.... There weren't any other attempts shown for this species by Dale or others.

    Whenever one of these posts gets resurrected, I'm reminded how much I miss Dale's posting of all the wonderful plants in his collection :(

    I think we all do. He could be a grump, but he had some spectacular plants and sure knew how to photograph them.

    Me and Marni reached out to him to see if he would want to come back but had no luck unfortunately.

    I know you guys did what you could. Unfortunately, prior to his requested banning, he said something to the effect of him never coming back regardless of the circumstances.

    Dale is still Grumpy, but doing fine, still taking pictures as good as ever. Had lunch with him.
